Because that whitelist applies to the name of the MACHINE that delivered it. Not
the domain name in the "mail from" command.

In this case, I assume you've hacked up log for privacy reasons, most notably
here the "addr" part, as 313.00.313.20 is not a valid IP address.

In any event, look at the real IP address and do a reverse DNS on it. If it does
not come back as something in "fakeaddwater.com", it won't match.
